It Was During This Time That The HEARTWORM "sound" Was Wrenched Forth From The Fevered Hyperactive Brain Of A Thouroughly Disturbed Man. Shattered Breaks Pounding Hardcore Rythms And Decimated Time Signatures Combine With A Healthy Dose Of Skewed Absurdist Humor And Oddly Arranged Melody To Create A Brain-Churning Dancefloor Assault. Drawing More From Punk Rock And Noise Than Actual Dance Music Has Been Known To Clear Dancefloors Just As Often As Rocking Them.
